hc for Hannah Hook and her patron goddess, Brizo -goddess of the oceans and prophetic dreams but also the protector of the fishermen and sailors, please ??

Picture it—three year old Hannah Artemis Hook-Le Fay, adoptive daughter of Mordred Madoc Le Fay (aka Morgie) and Captain James Bartholomew Hook of the Jolly Roger is bored.

She's too sick to go to daycare, her dad is running his shop, and her papa is making some potion to relieve her fever. Her siblings and friends are all at school, and she needs a way to entertain herself.

So she starts rifling around the house and finds a book on the Greek Gods and Goddesses—and well, Hades and Persephone and Uliana (and Hecate and Eris' semi-so) are a very active part in her life so of course it gets her curious. And that's when she first finds out about Brizo.

Brizo, an oracular goddess who specializes in Oneiromancy and the protector of mariners, sailors, and fishermen.

Of course, the three year old pirate was immediately taken by her because come on, a goddess who protects mariners, sailors, and fishermen? That's right up her alley.

Her interest in the goddess only strengths when Hades explains to her what exactly Oneiromancy is.

As a child who had dreams of the future and alternate universes a noticeable amount at the time, it made her even more curious and intrigued than she already was.

Cue Brizo immediately being bombarded by the thoughts of a three year old who is way younger than most of Brizo's worshipers tend to be, which of course draws the goddess's own curiosity.

Which then leads to her seeing the child interact with the above mentioned gods and goddesses, and leads to her observing the child's strong magical ability that's noticeable even on the isle.

No one knows for sure when exactly Brizo decided to become Hannah Hook's patron goddess—maybe it was when she first won her ship from Blackbeard when she was six. Maybe it was when the girl first started showing interest. Maybe it happened later on. No one can know for sure.

All anyone really knows for sure is that Brizo took an interest in the girl at some point and began to look out for her. Nudging her dreams in certain directions, pushes her towards certain paths that she thinks are the best for the girl at times.

She usually did so the help the girl find supplies and protection for ever growing club.

While she is Hannah Hook's patron goddess first and foremost, she tends to look out for the rest of the Stormbringer Crew as well—which included Rio Enriquez up until her betrayal of Hannah Hook.

This basically sums up Brizo's relationship with Hannah Hook:

(insert guardian angel meme).

Wilder, Treycor, and Jesse (three of Hannah Hook's crewmates) made a song for Brizo that plays to the tune of Lydia the Bard's 'Oh Aphrodite'.

Brizo is forever amazed as to the amount of trouble Hannah Hook manages to get herself in without ever having set sail. Thought that is true for the Hooks in general.

She is also amazed by the girl's clumsiness and chaos.

Hannah Hook is absolutely feral, and Brizo hates that about them.

Hannah's origins are a mystery that Brizo is dying to solve.

Hannah asks Brizo the most unanswerable questions and has since she was three years old.

Because of Brizo, Hannah stumbled into the world of Oneiromancy which comes in very handy whenever she has a particularly difficult and confusing vision that may or may not be future related (it's very hard to tell visions of the future from nightmares and visions of alternate universes).

Hannah often plays homage to her in the same way the women in Delos would—placing food small boats as an offering to her. She does so usually whenever she and the crew need a bit of luck but sometimes she does it just because. She does it at least twice a month, often times more.

She's made sure that none of her crew ever, ever, ever leave offerings of fish to Brizo to avoid earning any of them the ire of the goddess. After all, it's considered bad luck and it's been documented that she does not accept those offerings.

She makes her offerings usually at night, during phases of the lunar cycle since Brizo is also a lunar goddess.

The offerings usually consist of what little food they can spare along with the occasional sea shell, coin, song/poem, keychain, and/or drawing.

Hannah also does her best to make sure her crew is respectful of the ocean and it's inhabitants with-in reason because she does not want to offend the goddess who helps them out so often.

The two of them have never actually met but given Hannah's connection to Hades, Persephone, and Uliana it's likely that that will someday change.

She often shares stories related to Brizo, the sea, lighthouses, sea monsters, and more with her crew.

Honestly all the stuff Hannah has drilled into her friends' heads about Brizo has made it slowly begin to stick and it has kinda become an ingrained habit of all of them. Like their tendency to sing sea shanties when they're bored.

Brizo wasn't sure of Haul at first but eventually became to accept that the boy was a perfect match for the little pirate she had taken an interest in.

Hannah does not stop leaving Brizo offerings when she goes to Auradon and the crew contunies to do so as well even though they all know their captain is doing it regardless.

It took Hannah's Auradon friends a while to wrap their heads around her relationship with the goddess but they eventually got it and started picking up on the same little habits that the rest of the crew have developed regarding Brizo.

Haul has started making the little boats the crew uses for the offerings because he figures the wooden ones hold up better than the paper ones.

Brizo is amused by the fact the crew tends to tell Hannah bad news through little paper boats and usually assists them in getting the messages to her. Mostly because it's very entertaining to watch a 12 year old read her merry band of misfits the riot act.

Hannah, like Brizo, knows how to play the harp and the Fiddle.

UPON REQUEST TO YAP, YOU GET THIS SMOLL YAP

So, I made a new type of steve-

✨️Prismarine Steves✨️

FISH.

Actual explanation under the cut

They are aquatic and cannot breathe air, living underwater in an Empite (the Prismarine Empire). They are inspired off of guardians from reg Minecraft and they're feature are heavily based off of those. They have legs and a tail, so they theoretically could move around on land if given a way to breathe up there.

They are covered in scales and commonly have gills on their shoulders, neck, and near the end fin in their tails. They usually just wear a shirt and tail wrap (a long, normally black cloth that is wrapped around the base of their tail).

They are very hostile and will hunt down and cannabalise any members of their species who are sick or injured. They need to eat a lot, so they hunt very often and will eat their own kind on a whim.

They have a large third eye that they can use to shoot lasers with. This is a major way of how they fight and hunt prey, stunning them and mildly cooking them with the laser beam. Unrelated to this, their hair looks like kelp as a way of camouflage if seen from above.

In their Empire, they have the Elder Emperor, who is at least 2 times the size of the average prismarine steve. The Emperor is known for being cruel and harsh, leading the Empire infamous for being savage and cold.

The Emperor has seems to have a favorite guard, one named Brizo. There is also some rumors that he uses the guard as a plaything...

the prismarine steves also have 4 head spikes that they can retract and extend. They usually have them extended as a rorm of intimidation, having them retracted being a sign of surprise and weakness. Although, them rapidly retracting and extending is a sign of happiness. (Kinda like a dog wagging it's tail)

I'll post some drawings of them later.

Brizo (Βριζώ): Patron Goddess of Sailors and Sender of Prophetic Dreams Brizo occupies a quiet but evocative corner of the Greek religious imagination—a goddess whose power lay not in thunderbolts or grand myths, but in the intimate, liminal space between sleep and sea. Her name is often linked to the Greek brizein, “to slumber,” and this etymology captures her essence: a deity who governed the fragile threshold where sailors sought reassurance, prophecy, and protection before venturing into the unpredictable Aegean. Unlike the Olympian gods who dominated epic poetry, Brizo’s presence was felt in the personal rituals of mariners and their families, who turned to her for guidance through dreams that could warn, soothe, or foretell.

Her cult was centered on Delos, the sacred island of Apollo and Artemis, where women offered small, boat-shaped votives to her. These offerings were not filled with fish or marine animals—an intriguing prohibition that suggests Brizo’s domain was spiritual rather than material. She was not a goddess of the sea’s bounty but of its mysteries. The votives symbolized safe passage, the hope that the sea’s capricious nature could be softened by divine foresight. Through dreams, Brizo was believed to whisper warnings of storms, reveal auspicious routes, or offer reassurance to those whose livelihoods depended on the sea’s mercy.

Brizo’s prophetic role places her among the many Greek deities associated with divination, yet her method was uniquely intimate. Dreams were considered a porous medium through which gods could communicate, and Brizo specialized in this nocturnal channel. Sailors and their families would sleep after making offerings, hoping that the goddess would send visions that clarified their fate. In this way, Brizo bridged the physical and the metaphysical: she protected bodies at sea by guiding minds in sleep. Her cult reflects the ancient understanding that survival on the water required not only skill and strength but also spiritual preparation and psychological resilience.

Although Brizo never developed a large mythological corpus, her significance lies in the emotional landscape she inhabited. She was a guardian of vulnerability—of the moment before departure, when fear and hope intertwined. Her worship reveals how ancient Greeks navigated uncertainty, using ritual and dream-interpretation to impose meaning on the uncontrollable. In this sense, Brizo stands as a reminder that even in a pantheon filled with dramatic narratives, some deities served quieter, deeply human needs: the need for reassurance, for signs, and for the feeling that someone was watching over the night before the voyage.

My updated altar (again) now with a statue for lady Delos! I need to give her a bigger space (again) but that’ll probably take a while
